Description Robert Buchholz (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-01-03 14:19:28 UTC
There are three issues in resynth as installed by 1.2.96_beta:

(1) With recent bash and LD_LIBRARY_PATH unset, it bails out:
/usr/bin/resynth: line 72: LD_LIBRARY_PATH: unbound variable

(2) With older bash, or LD_LIBRARY_PATH set, it is missing lpc_synthesis:
/usr/bin/resynth: line 59: lpc_synthesis: command not found

(3) The line `extend LD_LIBRARY_PATH "/usr/lib64:"' appends the colon twice, which will lead to this situation (when adding debug output after the extend call):

$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib
$ /usr/bin/resynth
/usr/lib64::/usr/lib

Hi!

   Ive removed /usr/bin/resynth for speech-tools (-r2) as it is broken and upstream is unresponsive on this issue. It is also broken in all other main distros so is useless to have it around. 

   If upstream responds or a new version is available, will readd.

   Thanks rbu for your report.

   Best regards,
